Reduction of cysteine sulfinic acid by sulfiredoxin is specific to 2-Cys peroxiredoxins

Cysteine residues of certain peroxiredoxins (Prxs) undergo reversible oxidation to sulfinic acid (Cys-SO(2)H) and the reduction reaction is catalyzed by sulfiredoxin (Srx). Specific Cys residues of various other proteins are also oxidized to sulfinic...

Epigenetic inactivation of class II transactivator (CIITA) is associated with the absence of interferon-gamma-induced HLA-DR expression in colorectal and gastric cancer cells

Tightly regulated at the level of transcription, expression of MHC class II molecules varies significantly among gastrointestinal cancers. High levels of MHC class II expression are often associated with a better prognosis, which is indicative of the...

Steroid receptor coactivator-1 splice variants differentially affect corticosteroid receptor signaling

The mechanisms of receptor- and cell-specific effects of the adrenal corticosteroid hormones via mineralo- (MRs) and glucocorticoid receptors (GRs) are still poorly understood. Because the expression levels of two splice variants of the steroid...

T-cell Activation Leads to Poor Activation of the HIV-1 Clade E Long Terminal Repeat and Weak Association of Nuclear Factor-B and NFAT with Its Enhancer Region

The enhancer region in the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) 5'-long terminal repeat (LTR) is very important for viral transcription. This promoter sequence binds both nuclear factor-kappaB and NFAT, two important modulators of HIV-1 gene...

Role of Bcl-2 family proteins in a non-apoptotic programmed cell death dependent on autophagy genes

Programmed cell death can be divided into several categories including type I (apoptosis) and type II (autophagic death). The Bcl-2 family of proteins are well-characterized regulators of apoptosis, and the multidomain pro-apoptotic members of this...

The RAB25 small GTPase determines aggressiveness of ovarian and breast cancers

High-density array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) showed amplification of chromosome 1q22 centered on the RAB25 small GTPase, which is implicated in apical vesicle trafficking, in approximately half of ovarian and breast cancers. RAB25 mRNA...

Ciz1 promotes mammalian DNA replication

Using a cell-free system that reconstitutes initiation of mammalian DNA replication, we identified a cyclin A-responsive protein, p21(Cip1)-interacting zinc finger protein 1 (Ciz1). In cell-free experiments, Ciz1 protein increases the number of...

Plant alkaloid tetrandrine downregulates IB kinases-IB-NF-B signaling pathway in human peripheral blood T cell

Plant alkaloid tetrandrine (Tet), purified from Chinese herb Han-Fang Chi, is a potent immunomodulator used to treat rheumatic disorders, silicosis and hypertension in mainland China. We previously demonstrated that Tet effectively suppresses...

Isolation and characterization of a novel gene CLUAP1 whose expression is frequently upregulated in colon cancer

To disclose mechanisms of colorectal carcinogenesis and identify novel diagnostic markers and drug targets for treatment of these tumors, we previously analysed the expression profiles of 11 colorectal cancers using a genome-wide cDNA microarray...

CXCR4-Tropic HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein Functions as a Viral Chemokine in Unstimulated Primary CD4+ T Lymphocytes

Interaction of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 with the chemokine receptor CXCR4 triggers not only viral entry but also an array of signal transduction cascades. Whether gp120 induces an incomplete or aberrant set of signals, or whether it can...
